mandrake

GilbertsGrape · 10-29-2002, 02:56 PM

I was thinking of installing mandrake on my PC ( I think I already have mandrake 8.2 on cd)

I need to know some must have apps I should install as well

e-mail clients
do I need a virus scanner if so where do I get one for mandrake

File sharing is the any programs like Kazza light that work on mandrake?
MP3 player
Etc.

Thanks

there is an mp3 player built in if you select the multimedia workstation options (among others) it's called XMMS.

It comes with an email client or two, and I don't know about the file-sharing aspect, I've been off mandrake for a while now

: I need to go back.. Red Hat is pissing me off...

It seems it's a Lucent LT modem, this may work.
